Delete ZIP?

At some point I downloaded a test version (it was free) of the zip file on my laptop. Now I absolutely have to delete it. How do I proceed?

Pe

Do you mean a file with the extension .zip or the program for compressing or decompressing?

zo

Why do you have to delete zip? Simply uninstall the program

co

How?

ca

"Zip file" is not a program and there's no trial version for it.
7-zip is e.g. Free of charge and gets along with zip archives, you can use what you use instead of the program (probably Winzip or Winrar)

Cl

Enter the name of the program in the windows search bar and then click on uninstall

co

Yes. I now have to install a Robot Karol program on the laptop. This RK program is in ZIP. I downloaded it and I can't open it because the version is supposed to be off

co

Where can i find it? If I enter it in the search at Microsoft then I click on it and the ZIP window appears that the test version has expired.

Pe

Next time please write exactly what you want to know and everything you know about it! Otherwise the answers won't be correct either!

So you should install the program "Robot Karol", which is only available as a zip file. Then why delete it?

To install the program you have loaded the installation program "Robot Karol .zip" for the first time. In Win 10 it continues like this:

Right-click on this file and select "Extract"
Leave the storage location as suggested (i.e. The download folder)
After unzipping you will find a file that can be called Install.exe or Setup.exe or "RobotKarol.exe" (this is often very different).
Double click on this… Exe file and then the program "Robot Karol" will be installed and you can use it

then you can simply delete the "Robot Karol.zip".

OK.

I have full my laptop. How do I find other programs that I don't need to de-install anyway?

co

I don't have the "unzip"

Pe

Then download the program https://7-zip.org/a/7z1900-x64.exe, double click on the file:

7z1900-x64.exe

Then the 7-Zip will be installed. Then click on the above "Robot Karol .zip" with the right> mouse button. Then click on "open with…" in the new window, tick the box and select 7-Zip, then click OK.
From now on all… Zip files will be opened with 7-Zip and you can unzip them into a folder of your choice.

I need at least 1MB of free space. How can I delete the programs that I don't need? I don't want to delete anything important.

Pe

Which microcomputer are you on?

Take a course on the PC - that's beyond the scope of this!

I have ASUS laptop
